8 Dog-Friendly Pubs In London

The Narrowboat

Just set back from Regent’s Canal, this sweet riverside pub is ideal if you and your dog need a break during a walk along the water. The atmosphere is fun and friendly, and dogs are allowed to roam as they please. The pub’s glorious terrace looks out on the water and if you’re lucky enough to nab a table outside, you can watch the boats float on by.

Brewdog

The clue's in the name with this one. Brewdog bars across the country welcome four-legged friends with open arms. They even go one step further and allow their staff to bring their dogs to work with them and offer ‘pawternity leave’ if any team member welcomes a new dog into the family. Is this the best job ever? What’s more, if your dog is celebrating a special birthday, Brewdog host ‘Dog Pawties’, in which your pooch and their furry mates, donning dog-sized party hats, can drink special dog beer and scoff on doggy birthday cake.

The Alice House

This glamorous gastropub in Queen’s Park is popular with the after-work crowd as well as fans of posh pub grub. The exposed brickwork and pretty fairy lights make this venue slightly more upmarket than your average pub and perfect for date night with your dog in tow.

Mews of Mayfair

For the posh pooch in your life who refuses to slum it, Mews of Mayfair offers a more elegant drinking spot in the centre of London. The sophisticated restaurant and bar serves up delicious British cuisine and allows smaller dogs to accompany you whilst you dine in the main brasserie. But these guys aren’t sizeist – larger dogs are allowed to roam free in the courtyard and bar areas.

Bluebird Café

For privileged pooches, nothing seems more fitting than this popular Made in Chelsea hotspot. Swing by for a cocktail or a spot of brunch and your pup will be able to sip on tap water whilst chomping down on the goody bag of treats given to them on arrival. Dogs are allowed in the outside terrace area (but not the main restaurant) – perfect for soaking up the sun in summer.

Hand In Hand

Originally a bakery, this lively pub is popular with walkers exhausted from a trip around Wimbledon Common. And it’s not just any dog-friendly venue, it’s the dog-friendly venue, with the pub being voted the most dog-friendly pub of the year by DogBuddy in 2017. Bring your pup along for the chance to meet other four-legged friends – and perhaps be awarded the coveted title of 'Dog Of The Day'.

People’s Park Tavern

Formerly known as the Britannia, this bustling pub in the heart of east London is a crowd-favourite among families, groups and dog walkers. With no restrictions, dogs can sit inside or outside in the large beer garden and will be treated to water and snacks throughout their visit. They often give doggy guests shout-outs on their Instagram, so make sure your dog is looking their best to be crowned 'Pub Pup of the Week'.
